Where are the public sector unions??? Anyone heard from them? Trumka? HEEELLLOOOOO anyone home???

Anyone want to bet that the unions and the AFL-CIO will ccontinue to pour $ into dem’s campaigns??? Unions wonder why their numbers are dropping like a rock. THIS IS WHY. At least in Wisconsin the union were out by the tens of thousands.

ALL CAMPAIGN MONEY NEEDS TO GO AWAY FOR ANY DEMOCRAT WHO VOTED OR SUPPORTED THIS BILL. Can you hear us now???

Why doe s she and anything she says MATTER? She holds no office, is not running for anything yet and is nothing but a narcistic moron with a big mouth. I just don’t see why the media follows her around lie a puppy dog.

AZ just sucks. Their fu—- up laws, their hate, their politics, the fact that they have pulled transplant money from 100 sick people-2 have died so far-, their lax guns laws, lack of mental health services-all the way around the place sucks.

So it’s one big race to the bottom as far as wages go? Can you raise a family on $7.35 an hour? I was a public service employee for 12 years and proud of my service. The average salary at my university is 30K a year for regular workers. Went for 5 years so far with no raises—but food is going up,gas, elecric everything but those workers are expected to maintain on 5 year old wages?

You are right in one respect. The muckity mucks in higher education and in state government are pulling in huge salaries. Huge. The prez of this university makes 10M a year? But the landscaper makes 20K if lucky.

That’s why it has to be public AND private workers. Everyone. Pilots, truckers, bank workers, utility workers, cops. The big problem is with our current police state, the military would be in the streets–unless they refused to turn on their families and friends.

It would be a grand mess but this country would grind to a halt. I’m not sure we’re so bad that a military person or cop would shoot a citizen for walking off the job peacefully. And that’s key. No guns, no signs, no rally. Just walk off and go home.

Obviously jobs is the answer but not WalMart jobs. Hell it’s gotten so bad folks are GRATEFUL to work at Burger King. We have been beat down to nothing. The unemployed don’t even expect a decent job in their field. Now we’re grateful to work at McDonalds 10 hours a week.
